The situation has entered the fourth hour and it remains very tense. The police have launched gas canisters a few times. So this is now becoming a stand off. While police have told the airport that the risk to incoming flights has been neutralized, the airport has not confirmed that incoming flights have resumed. Until they officially do, check with the airlines if you are expecting a flight.

Update: 13:00 hours. Do check with your airline. The Airport is now posting departing flights are also getting affected.

Due to police activity near the airport, a ground stop is in effect for all arriving aircraft. Check with your airline before coming to SAN.

All this started as a domestic dispute. There are direct communications between officers and the suspect. Airport operations might be affected since this area is right under the landing path for Lindbergh Field. So flight arrivals might be delayed. While they are still trying to evacuate people, there is an active order for people to shelter in place.

Nov 4, 2015 (San Diego) San Diego Police is on scene of what they describe as an active shooter situation at 2445 Brant Street in Little Italy. Their social media feed has the order to shelter in place.
